Updating the Kevin White situation

Oct 23, 2015

On the physically unable to perform list, Bears WR Kevin White (stress fracture/surgery) is expected to accompany the team on road trips after the bye. White’s rehab is on schedule, and there’s a chance he will be medically cleared by the end of Week 11.

At that point the Bears must decide whether to activate White for the final five games, or wait until next year. Regardless of how the rest of 2015 plays out, the Bears still view White as a major part of their future.

Fantasy Impact:

Fantasy owners sitting on White in redraft leagues are likely to be disappointed, though it's possible that he comes back and helps during the fantasy playoffs. He's not going to be in good football shape and is likely to suffer through the typical rookie growing pains.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
